Abstract

An object determination method includes outputting a virtual scene image of a virtual scene. The virtual scene image includes a stereoscopic virtual image of at least one virtual object in the virtual scene. The method further includes, based on a selection operation on the virtual object in the virtual scene image, determining an operation point coordinate of the selection operation in a display area. The display area is configured to display the virtual scene image. The method further includes determining a reference coordinate position in the virtual scene, determining a spatial coordinate of the operation point coordinate of the selection operation mapped into the virtual scene, and determining at least one candidate virtual object for a user to select from the virtual scene in connection with the reference coordinate position and the spatial coordinate.
